How do you make fonts

I don't believe the Private Character editor will do what he's looking for. All it does is add characters to existing fonts, and only on your computer.

If they're pixel images, and they're monochrome, you can always re-sprite them on

Requires registration, but all the services are free

if you are using fusion 2 you can use text blitter

if you are using gamemaker you will need to do some fancy **** to get an object that behaves like a text blitter but it should be possible

it's one function

font_add_sprite();

(or font_replace_sprite(); whatever floats your boat)

nice work now what order do the characters go in on your sprite

standard ascii order

you can't change the order!?

and is this order documented?



and furthermore how do you print from a font onto the screen since he might kinda want to know that

you can choose what group of characters you want (ie numbers, lowercase, etc)

not documented since the gm helpfile sucks ASS
